About the adventure
In Scarab of Death, a level 10 D&D 5E one-shot, your party is drawn into a high-stakes investigation through the heart of Nabulee’s Bazaar of the Extraordinary. What starts as a "simple" murder mystery quickly spirals into something far more sinister... 🕵️ City-Based Mystery: Investigate suspects, interrogate witnesses, and uncover magical clues. 💀 Dangerous Magic Items: Cursed relics, necromantic tech, and constructs that kill. 🎭 Roleplay & Intrigue: Social encounters and deduction drive the story forward. ⚔️ For Experienced Players: Level 10 content with a mix of investigation, challenge, and suspense.

About me
I’m a full-time GM with a tech brain and a storyteller’s instinct. I run clean, well-prepped games with a healthy dose of improvisation and just enough chaos to keep players guessing. I love throwing players into situations they’ll definitely survive (probably). Also: unapologetically committed to terrible accents, delivered with great enthusiasm.
